Behold, a new and improved post-apocalyptic world has been created for you to explore and enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>The game is presently playable but under active development. It is intended to be a game that unfolds over time&#8211;3 to 9 months or more. That said, this initial phase should be seen as a precursor to the release of the &#8216;official&#8217; game server which ought to coincide with the actual release of book 3.<\/p>\n<p>To get started, you need to register for an account, verify your email address, and then login. You will be prompted to create a game name and a city name. This is your initial city.<\/p>\n<p>At first, you will enjoy &#8216;newbie protection.&#8217; However, you will be hard to reach in any case, since there will be no cities to&#8211;or from&#8211;your new city. Eventually you actually need to build the roads that are needed to help you connect to the other cities in the Birth Pangs Worlds. But beware: doing so makes it possible for adversaries to reach you, as well! (Roads may be built automatically by the game after a certain amount of time, so do not rest on your laurels too much!)<\/p>\n<h4><strong>To register for an account, <a href=\"https:\/\/birthpangs.com\/wp-login.php?action=register\">go here<\/a>.
